Definitions

  • This invention concerns the immunisation of ruminants, including cattle, sheep and goats, against staphylococcal mastitis.
  • Staphylococcal mastitis is a condition affecting approximately 25% of Australian dairy cattle, which is estimated to cost the industry about $50,000,000 each year in lost milk production, culling, antibiotics and costly husbandry procedures.
  • Live S.aureus vaccines stimulate the synthesis of considerable quantities of IgG 2 antibody which is cytophilic for neutrophils and there is direct evidence that this antibody enhances the specific phagocytic capacity of neutrophils for S.aureus under in vitro conditions (Watson 1975b, 1976).
  • live staphylococcal vaccines which stimulate predominantly IgG 2 synthesis (Kennedy et al 1981, Kennedy and Watson 1982)
  • killed staphylococcal vaccines given with oily adjuvants stimulate the production of predominantly IgG 1 antibody (Yokomizo and Isayama 1978; Kennedy and Watson 1982).
  • live vaccine results in more neutrophils arriving in the secretion within a few hours of infection and these cells are "armed" with cytophilic IgG 2 which increases their phagocytic capacity for staphylococci.
  • live staphylococcal vaccines can protect against the diversity of strains of S.aureus which may cause mastitis although recent experiments have provided encouraging results following challenge with homologous or heterologous strains in both ewes and heifers (Watson and Kennedy 1981; Watson 1984a).
  • Australian Patent Specification No.85929/82 discloses a live vaccine effective in the immunisation of ruminants against intermammary challenge by homologous or heterologous strains of S.aureus which is prepared by attenuating a catalase- and coagulase-positive strain of S.aureus, of ruminant origin, by multiple passage until loss of haemolytic activity is observed
  • Organisms grown in the laboratory and killed for a vaccine would not contain immunogenic quantities of anti-phagocytic pseudocapsular antigens and therefore the antibody produced in response to such vaccines is not directed against these protective antigens.
  • the in vivo multiplication of staphylococci given as a live vaccine ensures the presentation of these "in vivo" pseudocapsular antigens and the production by the animal of antibody against these antigens.
  • the present invention concerns a killed vaccine capable of generating practical immunity against staphylococcal mastitis, and to methods for the production and use of such a vaccine.
  • the present invention provides a killed vaccine effective in the immunisation of ruminants against intramammary challenge by S.aureus and other species of the genus Staphylococcus, which comprises the anti-phagocytic in vivo antigen(s) produced by a pseudocapsule-producing strain of S.aureus.
  • S.aureus in general is not an encapsulated species of-bacteria, however encapsulated strains are known which provide exceptions to this rule.
  • the production of a capsule by such strains when grown under conventional laboratory conditions can be readily demonstrated by an established and widely used technique (the India ink technique--Butt 1936), which identifies the strains as encapsulated S.aureus.
  • Strains of S.aureus which produce a pseudocapsule can be distinguished from such encapsulated strains in that the pseudocapsule-producing strains are negative in the India ink test when grown under conventional laboratory conditions (in vitro) or under in vivo conditions. However, when grown under in vivo conditions or when isolated from clinical material, they do produce a substance on the outside of the cell wall which is variously described as a "pseudocapsule” or "glycocalyx” (Caputy and Casterton, 1982).
  • At least one important component of the pseudocapsule is protein or glycoprotein in nature, based on absorption at a wavelength of 280 m ⁇ , staining of bands in polyacrylamide gels, and positive reaction with biuret reagent. It is an important feature of this aspect of the present invention that it provides a killed vaccine which comprises this in vivo antigen(s).
  • the killed vaccine comprises in vivo antigen(s) derived from a particular strain isolated from an acute case of bovine mastitis and identified as strain JG80.
  • Strain JG80 fulfils all the requirements of a ruminant mastitis strain of S.aureus according to Bergey's Manual of Determinative Bacteriology This strain is Gram-positive with grape-like clusters of spherical cells, and is characterised by rounded, smooth creamy-white colonies on blood agar.
  • Strain JG80 is a weak producer of alpha-hemolysin and a very strong producer of beta-hemolysin.
  • Staphylococcus aureus strain JG80
  • the vaccine also incorporates an adjuvant, in particular an adjuvant which promotes the production of IgG 2 subtype antibodies.
  • an adjuvant which promotes the production of IgG 2 subtype antibodies.
  • dextran sulphate is a particularly effective adjuvant for use in the vaccine of the present invention and it significantly enhances the protective immune response. This is believed to derive from the fact that dextran sulphate is a potent stimulator of IgG 2 antibody against staphylococcal cell surface antigens; as previously described, the presence of IgG 2 on the neutrophil membrane results in enhanced phagocytosis of S.aureus organisms in the mammary gland where neutrophils are the major defence mechanism against bacterial infection.
  • strains of S.aureus which produce a pseudocapsule when grown in the laboratory and killed for a vaccine, would not contain the antigenic material of the present invention.
  • An important further feature of the present invention resides in the discovery of a method of production of this antigenic material which arises from a novel method of cultivating the pseudocapsule-producing strains of S.aureus which, in effect, enables cultivation under "simulated in vivo conditions”.
  • a method of cultivation of a pseudocapsule-producing strain of S.aureus which is characterised in that organisms of the said strain of S.aureus are grown in vitro in a nutrient growth medium which has been enhanced by the addition of milk or milk components thereto.
  • a preferred addition to the nutrient growth medium to enhance the medium is sterile milk whey, for example rennet whey.
  • sterile milk whey for example rennet whey.
  • milk or milk component such as milk whey which is effective in enhancing the medium to enable the "simulated in vivo conditions" is not known.
  • Preliminary investigations in this regard appear to indicate that the lactose in the enhancing additive is not the crucial factor in ovine milk whey for induction of the in vivo antigen(s) in in vitro culture.
  • lactose alone as an additive does induce the synthesis of a pseudocapsule in in vitro culture, (although it is not as effective as milk whey in this regard), lactose does not appear to induce the synthesis of the in vivo antigen(s) at all.
  • the enhancement of the nutrient growth medium by the addition of, for example, milk whey enables the in vitro culture of S.aureus in such a manner that the "in vivo antigen(s)" normally associated only with in vivo culture of these organisms are produced under in vitro conditions.
  • milk whey from a "foreign" ruminant species, that is in the production of a vaccine for use in cattle, it is advisable to use ovine or other non-bovine milk whey.
  • a method of producing a vaccine effective in the immunisation of ruminants against intramammary challenge by S.aureus and other species of the genus Staphylococcus which comprises the steps of:
  • the cultivation of the pseudocapsule-producing strain under "simulated in vivo conditions" results in the production of in vivo antigen(s) as part of the pseudocapsule as described above.
  • Inactivation of the bacteria may be effected by any known means, for example, by addition of a bacteriocide such as formalin followed by storage between 2° C. and 8° C. for at least 24 hours.
  • a bacteriocide such as formalin
  • the cells are separated from the supernatant, for example by centrifugation, and the cells are then suspended in a suitable sterile buffered medium.
  • the final vaccine may also contain other known vaccine components such as bacteriostats
  • a method of immunising a ruminant against staphylococcal mastitis which comprises administering to the ruminant an effective amount of the vaccine in accordance with this invention.
  • the essential component of the vaccine of the present invention is the in vivo antigen(s) component previously described, it is preferred that either the vaccine also include a toxoid component based on exo-toxins such as alpha- and beta-hemolysins secreted by S.aureus into a culture supernatant, or that such a toxoid component be administered simultaneously with the vaccine of this invention.
  • the principal toxin in such a toxoid component is the toxin beta-hemolysin, a toxin produced by most ruminant mastitis strains of S.aureus in in vitro culture.
  • the toxins can be readily harvested by centrifugation to separate cells and supernatant, followed by concentration of the supernatant by lyophilization and toxoiding by known methods, for example, with formalin.
  • S.aureus JG80 described earlier is a very strong producer of beta-hemolysin, and is a preferred strain for production of the toxoid component when cultured under conditions favouring secretion of exotoxins, typically by culture using a fortified nutrient broth.
  • S.aureus also secretes other extracellular products such as enzymes and other hemolysins (alpha-, gamma- and delta-hemolysins) and all such other extracellular products may be toxoided and incorporated into the toxoid component described above.
  • the inclusion of the toxoid component as described herein, either in the vaccine itself, or in the vaccination regimen, is of particular benefit in providing protection against highly toxigenic strains of S.aureus.
  • the vaccine of this invention based on in vivo antigen(s) provides good protection from challenge with low to moderately toxigenic strains, when the toroid component is included the protection against even highly toxigenic strains is substantial.
  • the toxoid component is combined with the in vivo antigen(s) component in a combined vaccine.
  • Serological testing has shown that there is no significant difference in antibody titres to the in vivo antigen(s) or to beta-hemolysin when the components are administered simultaneously but in separate anatomical locations (for example, to avoid undesirable interactions between the lesions induced by each component) or together.
  • the vaccine of this invention may be formulated so as to include a "depot" component to increase retention of the antigenic material at the administration site.
  • a "depot" component to increase retention of the antigenic material at the administration site.
  • mineral oil may be added to provide this depot effect.
  • the route of administration of the vaccine is not critical, and for example subcutaneous, intracutaneous and intramuscular injection may be used.
  • the vaccine may also be administered intramammarily, if desired, in association with antibiotics.
  • the vaccine of this invention may be combined with vaccines of other genera of bacteria to provide a single "broad spectrum" vaccine.
  • Staphyloccocus aureus (strain JG80) was grown from a starter culture for 24 hours in 1 liter of Oxoid nutrient broth to which had been added 10% (v/v) of sterile ovine milk whey. The culture was grown at 37° C. with shaking on an orbital shaker. After 24 h growth, formalin was added to a final concentration of 1% (v/v) and the culture was then held at 4° C. for 24 h. The cells were then removed by centrifugation at 7000 rpm (1 hour, 4° C.) and the supernatant discarded.
  • Staphyloccocus aureus (strain JG80) was grown from a starter culture for 48 hours in 1 liter of Oxoid Brain-Heart Infusion broth. The culture was grown at 37° C. with very gentle shaking on an orbital shaker. The culture was centrifuged at 7000 rpm, 1 hour, 4° C. and 800 ml of the supernatant was concentrated by lyophilisation to a volume of 100 ml. To this was added 1 ml formalin and the preparation was allowed to stand at room temperature for at least 4 hours. This toxoid was then frozen (-16° C.) in 10 ml aliquots and thawed immediately before use. This is vaccine "T1".
  • Vaccine C1 was given as a 1 ml dose subcutaneously in the posterior aspect of the left hind limb approximately 50cm above the hock.
  • Vaccine T1 was given as a 1 ml dose subcutaneously in the same location on the right hind limb.
